The KJV mistranslated the Greek word (porna) for harlot into whore. (further protestant butchering of the bible) The correct translation is that St. John sees the great harlot.

So the KJV using "whore" - "woman who engages in sexual intercourse for money" for harlot - "a woman who engages in sexual intercourse for money" is "butchering the Bible?

And we should look to RC Bibles for correction translation of porneia and other words, such as the official NAB and its revisions?

Don’t forget “do penance” instead of “repent” and “she shall crush thy head” instead of “HE shall crush thy head”.

Pete, it's a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart.
